When I was in college I subscribed to the Great Books of the Western World thinking that if I could only manage to read these tomes I would truly be an educated man. The first installment came, I ran out of money, and that was that . . . until now.
Years later I came across a full set of these books on Ebay. To my surprise I won, and suddenly the greatest western works of science, literature, philosophy, and politics were at my fingertips so to speak.
After much delay and procrastination, I now set forth to peruse each of these volumes (1-52) and I beleive that such an endeavor should be chronicled, mostly for my own selfish benefit, but also in hope that my progeny may find some insight into my own character by my thoughts and reactions to these works.
Without further ado....
